195. Problem 3.43 (R) Consider electromagnetic radiation to consist of photons,
that is, particles of zero rest mass and of energy
|
Solution: Click For PDF Version Let us consider two inertial frames S and
Energy of a photon of frequency
Energy of this photon as measured by
The Lorentz transformation of energy and momentum is Therefore, we have And when the source and the observer are moving toward each other with speed V, we have The relations between the emitted frequency
